She devoted over 30 years of her life to caring for others as a Certified Nursing Assistant, serving in various convalescent homes in Ocala. Her kindness, selflessness, and compassionate heart left an indelible mark on all who knew her. Lorene's greatest joy was her family, whom she loved unconditionally.
